Re: Hardy Release Time

you really think so?
I have been running ubuntu for a while and have a lot of things setup, I upgraded to gutsy from a previous version, and didnt encounter any issues.
I have been running gutsy since the release, I use this computer primarily as my work pc, so it has a lot of stuff configured. vmware, pptp vpn's (credentials included) email etc.

btw, has the final release of 8.04 been released? or is it still the testing version?

Re: Hardy Release Time

I did a clean install from a 19-April daily build of the release candidate on 22-April. Right after install, it saw 94 updates. I installed them and left the machine till today. I expected there to be more stuff to get it up to final, but there were only 2 updates. Apparently, it upgraded itself to final on 22 April. Runs great.
This was on a work station at my office, where it dual boots with XP.

On my main machine at home, well, look at my signature line. I will soon be adding >8.04 to the end of the list. I have had no problems with the last 2 upgrades. The first few were "interesting" and forced me to learn a bit.

I would say if you have a good working install of Gutsy and don't have many 3rd party repos, especially for your video drivers, it will probably just upgrade with little to no drama.
